Copying the human lens takes robotic technology a long-way; however, the compound eyes of insects provides a different level of visualization when it comes to peripheral vision. Other advantages that ...

The compound eyes of insects can detect fast-moving objects in parallel and, in low-light conditions, enhance sensitivity by integrating signals over time to determine motion. Inspired by these ...

The field of biomimetic imaging systems and artificial compound eyes represents a fusion of biological inspiration and advanced engineering to develop compact, high-performance visual devices. These ...

Not all insects have compound eyes. Most adult beetles have simple eyes, but their larvae have compound eyes. Chickens have a third eyelid that slides horizontally to protect… You must be a member to ...

A photograph of the artificial compound eye prototype developed at the University of Virginia School of Engineering and Applied Science by associate professor Kyusang Lee. Self-driving cars ...

A camera smaller than a fingernail can now see what most high-speed cameras miss. Inspired by the eyes of insects, scientists have created a tiny, powerful device that captures fast-moving scenes in ...

Phil, Mag. from Magasin Encyclopedique, February, 1814.

An international team of researchers from MIT, Rice University, and Lund University has simulated the evolution of the eye, demonstrating that the diversity of eye shapes in nature is not a ...

This essay was launched by reading an almost unintelligible (to me) scientific paper about chiton eyes. Nevertheless, that paper led to others, and here I have summarized some of the related natural ...
